Nexium caused depression for me. I'll never take those again ever!...
The bladder issue seem to be just one day. lucky. did some reading and some say that Zantac doesn't seem to work if taken often. been on it for about 7-8months taken once at night. maybe i should try...
Been about 7 months and yesterday got my first attack. Taking Zantac 150mg at nights. Then next day, been peeing a lot. Weird to say, never had this urge before from passed attacks. Had to take apple...
everyone will have different side effects and some will have none. in my case, i had stomach cramps after 5 days and then went away after a wk or so. i was still getting attacks at nights, couldn't...
Ya, stressing isn't gonna help. Easier said than done. So, hang in there....
Happy 4th of July. Just came back from the cardiologist. All is normal. Nothing wrong with the heart. Now I can rest a bit easier and know that this acid reflex is causing the chest pains/discomforts...
Had 2-3 glasses of wine during dinner on Saturday. On Sunday morning, I notice a slight chest discomfort, off and on till today late afternoon. Not too sure, if my cold had anything to do with it....
Ya, I still remembered that day (2yrs ago). Felt like something was stuck in my throat, couldn't swallow and I guess I panic as well. Went to the ER that day. They did blood work, Xray, ECG (heart)....
Yep, all above and you can add chest pains and throat issues to the list....
Everyone will react differently to each medications. I guess you can say it's a trail and error process. For me, PPI (Nexium, Prevacid) wasn't for me. Had so many side effects especially on Nexium...
Another wk and been feeling great. Zantac 75mg is working well. Got a call for an appointment this coming Thursday July 4 with the cardiologist. I guess it for the result of the Holter monitor that I...
Was on Nexium and Prevacid. Stopped about 5wks ago and glad I did. While on Nexium, I had tons of side affects including chest pains. For me, the first wk off was the hardest. But at the same time, I...
Not too sure about nervous, maybe a bit. Was taking 150mg at nights for 2 wks. Currently, 75mg for 2wks and counting. Still have odd nights where I can't sleep but it's 10x better than Nexium....
When I was on Nexium for about a month, I had so many side affects. Depression, chest pains, stomach pain, fatigue, couldn't sleep, you name it. Glad that I stop taking it....
SufferingAcid, I sort of know what your going through. Chest pains, difficult swallowing, throat issues, can't sleep at nights, etc. Took different PPI. Nexium was the worse for me. Glad I stop...
Had middle back pains as well but more to the left and I believe it was a pinched nerve. Been doing some back exercise and helps a lot. I decided not to use Betaine HCL cause I had a slight burning...
Update: something weird just happen this afternoon. just finish lunch and started having chest tightness. for some reason I decided to take two pills of the Betaine Hydrochloride (HCL). After 10mins,...
I went cold turkey and I suffered (lightheaded/dizzy, stomach pain, chest tightness and felt something was stuck in my throat) for 4/5 days (not in a row), then got better. But at the same time, I...
Yes, from time to time. I get this feeling like something is stuck in my throat and have a hard time swallowing my own saliva. would this be a case where acid is coming back up? Also, I remembered...
Update: total of 4wks on Zantac. 3wks @ 150mg and currently taking 75mg for a wk now. 2wks since I stopped Prevacid. For the last 2wks, still getting the lightheaded / dizzyness from time to time but...
I know how you feel. Always worrying if I was going to sleep or not. My mind was playing games with me, always thinking. Since I've been off Nexium, I feel much better. Nexium isn't for everyone and...
I'm getting these symptoms as well. But was worse when I was on PPI meds. Since I'm off the PPI meds (2wks or so), I'm feeling a lot better but get them from time to time. However, I am taking Zantac...
A small update: Had the Holter monitor hook up yesterday for 24hrs. Will be removing it this afternoon. This is a precaution that the GI dr suggested to rule out it's not the heart that's causing my...
I personally would never take PPI meds again. They're too harsh for me....
^ i do from 2.5/3hrs....
tummywoes, i have and even double up the pillow. still get the attacks from time to time. but so far, with Zantac at nights (wk and half), it's been good....
Quick question. If we get attacks while sleeping does this mean we have low or high acids in our stomach or it doesn't matter?...
i read that dizzy spells are due to low blood pressure. but the last few times that i did check my bp, it was borderline high....
For the last 4 days been having this weird symptom. Every time I eat something, regardless the amount, I get lightheaded and a bit dizziness. Lasts for about 30-45mins. Usually happens during lunch...
I had bleeding in my stool for couple of wks and it went away by itself. i was bright in color. it could have been my hemorrhoids which i had before but this time around i don't think it was that....
Funny how other articles say garlic is bad for you....
tummywoes: from time to time i get stomach aches but mostly it feels like something is stuck there, especially in my chest area. natitc: no, don't think it's heartburn. it's hard to describe. i get...
Had a moderate attack around 5pm yesterday. It's been awhile since I had one in the afternoon. Usually it's at night. I'm still feeling the effects. For me, when I get a heavy to moderate attack, it...

I've decided to stop Prevacid and of course I'll tapered off instead of going cold turkey. Two nights with Zantac and feeling good both nights. Currently taking 150mg but might reduce to 75mg in the...
